Rick Rubin Confirms He’s Working On Kanye’s ‘Yeezus’ Follow-Up

Kanye West promised the follow-up to last year’s Yeezus would be out this year. But ‘Ye’s been busy, you know, getting married, honeymooning in Ireland and gearing up for his big Bonnaroo return, which happened this weekend, rants and all.

According to NME, Rubin said that Yeezy was coming by his California recording studio that same day as the interview to start “looking at vocal ideas for things for the next album.”

Though one could attest that sounds like Kanye is really only in the early stages of recording, Rubin tells a story about working with Kanye on Yeezus, which makes it clear, ‘Ye doesn’t need that much time to make a masterpiece.
